Welcome! All watches are welcome- even if they reside in New Jersey 😉

Share some wrist shots of your toys and jump on in to the party.

Will do so.

I have one Seamaster vintage piece that was from my father-in-law. And I hope someone in the forum can help me get a little but more info about it.

And NJ is not that bad, you just need to know where to go 😉

NJ is a lovely place- just ribbing.

As for your family piece, post a few well lit pics of the front and back and we can try to see what we see.

@Kronos88 Welcome, I am from NJ also. I’m in south or central NJ, whatever you want to call it haha. I picked up my first Omega the other week from the boutique at Short Hills.

Hey Chris, so I am Central or North NJ... I never know hahaha.

That is my boutique as well. Who is your SA? I live pretty close to the mall, so I am always there checking what they have and chatting about some new pieces.

I looked at a Railmaster, Planet Oceans, Seamaster 300s, and decided on this. I also got a black nato and the black & gray striped nato for it.

@Kronos88 Thank you, I am really happy with it. I'm trying to decide what will be next. We can't wait to see what you have in your collection.

I have a Planet Ocean and recently purchased a Moonwatch.

I also have a vintage Speedmaster that was from my father-in-law. This one has a lot of sentimental value, so basically stays on the safe except for special occasions.



Excuse my baby wrist ..... 😁

@Kronos88 They look great! What size Plant Ocean is that? I have a small wrist too and was surprised how well it fit on me. I tried on the 43.5 & the 39.5 both on the leather strap. I tried on the GMT one with the leather strap and that was impressive too.

39.5, no way the 43.5 would fit.

The Speedy at 42 is the limit, I cant go bigger. I was eyeballing the Aqua Terra Worldtimer, but it is too big for my wrist 🙁

Now I am chasing a Rolex YM, but the purchasing experience is really stressful, especially without having an AD purchase history.

Hey you have some beautiful watches. I’m right next door to you in the depressing state of CT but might be moving in a while. Anyway I actually like Jersey my wife’s friends have a beautiful place in NJ, I also took the train to Jersey a couple years back when I bought a used auto as the same model, year, miles was almost 3k cheaper in your state.

@Walrus Thanks! I am new to NJ, actually to the US as well, so I didn't know about those arbitrage opportunities in car sales across states line. Interesting!

I need to visit CT, never being, just went to upstate NY a few times.

What do you have in your collection?
